यर्मिया 7

1 परमप्रभुको यो वचन यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,

The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

2 “परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको मूल ढोकामा खडा हो र यो वचन घोषणा गर् । यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभुलाई आराधना चढाउन यी ढोकाहरूबाट प्रवेश गर्ने यहूदाका सबै मानिसहरू हो, परमप्रभुको वचन सुन ।

Take your place in the doorway of the Lord's house, and give out this word there, and say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who come inside these doors to give worship to the Lord.

3 सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः तिमीहरूका मार्ग र अभ्यास असल बनाओ, र म तिमीहरूलाई यस ठाउँमा बसिरहन दिनेछु ।

The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, says, Let your ways and your doings be changed for the better and I will let you go on living in this place.

4 छलपूर्ण वचनहरूमा आफू भर नपर र यसो नभन, 'परमप्रभुको मन्दिर! परमप्रभुको मन्दिर! परमप्रभुको मन्दिर!'

Put no faith in false words, saying, The Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, are these.

5 किनकि तिमीहरूले वास्तवमै तिमीहरूका मार्ग र अभ्यासहरू असल बनायौ भने, अनि तिमीहरूले मानिस र त्यसको छिमेकीको बिचमा न्यायलाई पूर्ण रूपमा कायम राख्यौ भने,

For if your ways and your doings are truly changed for the better; if you truly give right decisions between a man and his neighbour;

6 तिमीहरूले देशमा बस्‍ने मानिस, अनाथ वा विधवालाई शोषण गरेनौ र यस ठाउँमा निर्दोषको रगत बगाएनौ र आफैलाई हानि पुर्‍याउन अरू देवताहरूको पछि लागेनौ भने,

If you are not cruel to the man from a strange country, and to the child without a father, and to the widow, and do not put the upright to death in this place, or go after other gods, causing damage to yourselves:

7 म तिमीहरूलाई यस ठाउँमा बस्‍न दिनेछु, जुन देश मैले प्राचीन समयदेखि नै सदाको लागि तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएँ ।

Then I will let you go on living in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers in the past and for ever.

8 हेर! तिमीहरूले छलपूर्ण वचनहरूमाथि भरोसा गर्दैछौ जसले तिमीहरूको मदत गर्दैनन् ।

See, you put your faith in false words which are of no profit.

9 के तिमीहरू चोर्छौ, मार्छौ, र व्यभिचार गर्छौ? के तिमीहरू छलपूर्वक शपथ खान्‍छौ अनि बाल देवतालाई धुप चढाउँछौ र तिमीहरूले नचिनेका अरू देवताहरूको पछि लाग्छौ?

Will you take the goods of others, put men to death, and be untrue to your wives, and take false oaths, and have perfumes burned to the Baal, and go after other gods which are strange to you;

10 त्यसपछि तिमीहरू आउँछौ अनि मेरो नाउँले बोलाइने यस मन्‍दिरमा मेरो सामु खडा हुन्‍छौ र यसो भन्छौ, “हामी बचाइएका छौं”, यसरी तिमीहरू यी सबै घृणित कामहरू गर्न सक्‍छौ?

And come and take your place before me in this house, which is named by my name, and say, We have been made safe; so that you may do all these disgusting things?

11 के मेरो नाउँले पुकारिने यो घर तिमीहरूको दृष्‍टिमा डाँकुहरूको ओडार हो? तर हेर, मैले यो देखेको छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।’

Has this house, which is named by my name, become a hole of thieves to you? Truly I, even I, have seen it, says the Lord.

12 ‘त्यसैले शीलोमा भएको मेरो ठाउँ जाओ, जहाँ सुरुमा मैले मेरो नाउँ रहने अनुमति दिएँ, र मेरो जाति इस्राएलको दुष्‍टताको कारणले मैले यसलाई के गरें त्‍यो हेर ।

But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I put my name at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil-doing of my people Israel.

13 त्यसैले अब यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, तिमीहरूका यी सबै अभ्यासको बारेमा तिमीहरूसित म बेलाबेलामा बोलेँ, तर तिमीहरूले सुनेनौ । मैले तिमीहरूलाई बोलाएँ, तर तिमीहरूले जवाफ दिएनौ ।

And now, because you have done all these works, says the Lord, and I sent my word to you, getting up early and sending, but you did not give ear; and my voice came to you, but you gave no answer:

14 त्यसकारण मैले शीलोलाई जे गरें, मेरो नाउँद्वारा बोलाइने यस मन्दिरलाई पनि म त्यसै गर्नेछु, तिमीहरूले भरोसा गरेको यो घर हो, जुन मैले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएँ ।

For this reason I will do to the house which is named by my name, and in which you have put your faith, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

15 जसरी मैले तिमीहरूका सबै दाजुभाइ अर्थात् एफ्राइमका सबै सन्तानलाई निकालेँ, त्यसरी नै मेरो सामुबाट म तिमीहरूलाई निकाल्नेछु ।”

And I will send you away from before my face, as I have sent away all your brothers, even all the seed of Ephraim.

16 “ए यर्मिया, तैंलेचाहिं यी मानिसहरूको लागि प्रार्थना नगर्, र तिनीहरूको पक्षमा विलाप नगर्, न त बिन्ती चढा, किनकि म तेरो कुरा सुन्दिनँ ।

And as for you (Jeremiah), make no prayers for this people, send up no cry or prayer for them, make no request for them to me: for I will not give ear.

17 यहूदाका सहरहरू र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूमा तिनीहरूले के गरिरहेका छन् भनी के तँ देख्दैनस्?

Do you not see what they are doing in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18 छोराछोरीले दाउरा बटुल्दैछन्, र बुबाहरू आगो बाल्दैछन् । तिनीहरूले मलाई चिढ्याउनलाई स्वर्गकी रानीको निम्ति फुरौला बनाउन स्‍त्रीहरू पिठो मुछ्दैछन्, र अरू देवताहरूका लागि अर्घबलि खन्याउँदैछन् ।

The children go for wood, the fathers get the fire burning, the women are working the paste to make cakes for the queen of heaven, and drink offerings are drained out to other gods, moving me to wrath.

19 के तिनीहरूले साँच्‍चै मलाई चिढ्याउँदै छन् त? यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, के लाज तिनीहरूमाथि नै आइपरोस् भनेर तिनीहरूले आफैलाई चिढ्याइरहेका होइनन् र?

Are they moving me to wrath? says the Lord; are they not moving themselves to their shame?

20 त्यसकारण परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'हेर, यस ठाउँमा मानिस र पशु दुवैमाथि, शेतबारीका रूखहरू र जमिनका फलमाथि मेरो रिस र क्रोधको ज्वाला फुट्नेछ । यसले जलाउनेछ, र कहिल्यै निभाइनेछैन ।”

So this is what the Lord God has said: See, my wrath and my passion will be let loose on this place, on man and beast, and on the trees of the field, and on the produce of the earth; it will be burning and will not be put out.

21 इस्राएलका सर्वशक्तिमान् परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, ‘तिमीहरूका बलिदानहरूमा होमबलिहरू मिसाओ, र तीबाट मासु पनि मिसाओ ।

These are the words of the Lord of armies, the God of Israel: Put your burned offerings with your offerings of beasts, and take flesh for your food.

22 किनकि मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई मिश्रदेशबाट ल्याउँदा तिमध्‍ये कुनै कुरा पनि मैले इच्‍छा गरिन । होमबलि र बलिदानहरूको विषयमा मैले तिनीहरूलाई कुनै आज्ञा दिइनँ ।

For I said nothing to your fathers, and gave them no orders, on the day when I took them out of Egypt, about burned offerings or offerings of beasts:

23 मैले तिनीहरूलाई यो आज्ञा मात्र दिएँ, “मेरो आवाजलाई सुन, र म तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनेछु, र तिमीहरू मेरा मानिसहरू हुनेछौ । त्यसैले तिमीहरूको भलो होस् भनेर मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएका सबै आज्ञामा हिंड ।”

But this was the order I gave them, saying, Give ear to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people: go in all the way ordered by me, so that all may be well for you.

24 तर तिनीहरूले सुनेनन्, वा ध्यान नै दिए । तिनीहरू आफ्‍ना दुष्‍ट हृदयका आफ्नै हठी योजनामुताबिक जिए । त्यसैले तिनीहरू पछिल्तिर गए, अगिल्तिर बढेनन् ।

But they took no note and did not give ear, but were guided by the thoughts and the pride of their evil hearts, going back and not forward.

25 तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरू मिश्रदेशबाट आएको समयदेखि आजको दिनसम्म मैले आफ्‍ना हरेक सेवक र अगमवक्ताहरू तिमीहरूकहाँ पठाएको छु । मैले तिनीहरूलाई पठाउन जोड गरिरहेँ ।

From the day when your fathers came out of Egypt till this day, I have sent my servants the prophets to you, getting up early every day and sending them:

26 तर तिनीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनन् । तिनीहरूले ध्यानै दिएनन् । बरु, तिनीहरू अटेरी भए । आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूभन्दा तिनीहरू अझै दुष्‍ट भए ।’

But still they took no note and would not give ear, but they made their necks stiff, doing worse than their fathers.

27 त्यसैले यी सबै वचन तिनीहरूलाई सुना, तर तिनीहरूले तेरो कुरा सुन्‍नेछैनन् । तिनीहरूलाई यी कुराको घोषणा गर्, तर तिनीहरूले तँलाई जवाफ दिनेछैनन् ।

And you are to say all these words to them, but they will not give ear to you: you will send out your voice to them, but they will give no answer.

28 तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्, “यो परमप्रभु आफ्ना परमेश्‍वरको आवाज नसुन्‍ने र अनुशासन पालन नगर्ने जाति हो । सत्यता नष्‍ट गरिएको छ, र तिनीहरूका मुखबाट बहिष्कृत गरिएको छ ।

And you are to say to them, This is the nation which has not given ear to the voice of their God, or taken his teaching to heart: good faith is dead and is cut off from their mouths.

29 आफ्नो कपाल काट र आफूलाई खौरी । खुला ठाउँहरूमा मृत्‍यु संस्‍कारको गीत गा । किनकि परमप्रभुले आफ्नो क्रोधमा यस पुस्तालाई इन्कार गर्नुभएको छ र त्याग्‍नुभएको छ ।

Let your hair be cut off, O Jerusalem, and let it go, and let a song of grief go up on the open hilltops; for the Lord is turned away from the generation of his wrath and has given them up.

30 किनकि यहूदाका छोराहरूले मेरो दृष्‍टिमा दुष्‍ट काम गरेका छन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । मेरो नाउँद्वारा पुकारिने यस मन्दिरलाई अपवित्र तुल्याउनलाई तिनीहरूले त्‍यसमा घृणित कुराहरू राखेका छन् ।

For the children of Judah have done what is evil in my eyes, says the Lord: they have put their disgusting images in the house which is named by my name, making it unclean.

31 अनि बेन-हिन्‍नोमको बेँसीमा तिनीहरूले तोपेतका अग्ला ठाउँहरू बनाए । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई आगोमा जलाउन त्‍यो बनाए । यो कुरो मैले तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा दिएको थिइनँ, न त मेरो मनमा नै पसेको थियो ।

And they have put up the high place of Topheth in the valley of the son of Hinnom, burning their sons and their daughters there in the fire; a thing which was not ordered by me and never came into my mind.

32 यसैले हेर, यस्‍ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, त्‍यसबेला त्‍यो फेरि तोपेत वा हिन्‍नोमको बेँसी भनिने छैनन् । त्‍यो हत्याको बेँसी भनिनेछ । तोपेतमा खाली ठाउँ रहुञ्जेलसम्म तिनीहरूले त्यहा लाशहरू गाड्नेछन् ।

For this cause, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be named Topheth, or, The valley of the son of Hinnom, but, The valley of Death: for they will put the dead into the earth in Topheth till there is no more room.

33 यो जातिका लाशहरू आकाशका चराहरू र जङ्गली जनावरहरूका लागि आहारा हुनेछन्, र तिनीहरूलाई तर्साएर लखेट्ने कोही पनि हुनेछैन ।

And the bodies of this people will be food for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth; and there will be no one to send them away.

34 यहूदाका सहरहरू र यरूशलेमका सडकहरूबाट हर्ष र आनन्दको आवाज, दुलहा र दुलहीको सोरलाई म अन्त्य गरिदिनेछु, किनकि यो देश उजाड हुनेछ ।”

And in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, I will put an end to the laughing voices, the voice of joy and the voice of the newly-married man and the voice of the bride: for the land will become a waste.
